and yeah whoever that generic blues band were kind of blew them off the stage, sorry but they were such sleepy hippies by fall of '69...

sleep hippie vu is still kickass

Too lazy to itemise - anyone know what’s on the vinyl that ain’t on the CDs?

an incoherent crustacean (MatthewK), Saturday, 29 June 2019 01:44 (six years ago)

Wait, was the other band The Nazz or not?

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:08 (six years ago)

Not the Nazz
Just a buzz
Some kinda temporary

Vini C. Riley (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:11 (six years ago)

Matrix tapes on vinyl has the same tracks as matrix tapes on cd.

tylerw, Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:39 (six years ago)

yeah but the vinyl has all the CD tracks except they’re on vinyl

budo jeru, Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:42 (six years ago)

The numbering for the tracks is a little different because of Sister Ray being split. There is no exclusive content to the vinyl.

Cow_Art, Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:43 (six years ago)

ah THAT'S why there's 43 tracks instead of 42, thanks

Ambient Police (sleeve), Saturday, 29 June 2019 02:45 (six years ago)

Thanks, I had assumed that was the reason. I would have been pretty ticked off after buying the same tracks 4 times on 1969 Live, Quine Tapes, 3rd album 45th anniversary and then the Matrix CDs.

an incoherent crustacean (MatthewK), Saturday, 29 June 2019 03:45 (six years ago)

Don't think that was the Nazz, but after Rundgren amscrayed in early '69, the rest of the band did relocate to Dallas, and worked out of there with guitarist Snuffy Walden (later of Free and loads of TV soundtracks) for about six months before throwing in the towel near the end of the year.

Too bad this rally was a little too soon for an appearance by Cast of Thousands featuring Stevie's Tobolosky & Ray Vaughan:

Yeah luckily the video is easily found on YouTube. Great footage though I wish the audio was a little louder

willem, Saturday, 29 June 2019 09:35 (six years ago)

<3 the old boy who gets interviewed right after the VU.

Orpheus Knutt (Tom D.), Saturday, 29 June 2019 09:48 (six years ago)

nickn, Monday, 1 July 2019 18:21 (six years ago)

Too bad he didn't sit in with them...coulda had a cool monologue intro to "Sister Ray".

frustration and wonky passion (C. Grisso/McCain), Monday, 1 July 2019 18:24 (six years ago)

Rawls and Reed together at last.

anyway that was Lou Rawls doing Season of the Witch

brownie, Monday, 1 July 2019 18:29 (six years ago)

"faxx nazz"

No results found for "faxx nazz".

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Monday, 1 July 2019 18:58 (six years ago)

p sure it's fuxx nazz

budo jeru, Monday, 1 July 2019 19:00 (six years ago)

I thought about that but the "u"s in both Lou & Underground seem to have more space between the lines.

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Monday, 1 July 2019 19:08 (six years ago)

(and that result is also absent in google as well).

Jersey Al (Albert R. Broccoli), Monday, 1 July 2019 19:09 (six years ago)

i was just making a childish joke, sry

budo jeru, Monday, 1 July 2019 19:10 (six years ago)

Velvet Dream meet Velvet Underground

Mark G, Monday, 1 July 2019 21:39 (six years ago)

I think it's funny that was a fake Nazz there when the real one was available and in the area.

frustration and wonky passion (C. Grisso/McCain), Monday, 1 July 2019 21:41 (six years ago)

Lou Mitchell meet Lou Rawls

nickn, Monday, 1 July 2019 22:16 (six years ago)

Any reason...

i lost it when Gumby showed up in that Soul Man video

Screamin' Jay Gould (The Yellow Kid), Tuesday, 2 July 2019 00:20 (six years ago)

Eddie Murphy?

Vini C. Riley (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 2 July 2019 01:37 (six years ago)

Oh no, not him.

I just watched that and felt really weird having successfully avoided anything to do with that movie for so long.

Vini C. Riley (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 2 July 2019 01:41 (six years ago)

Has anyone attempted to compile a two-disc "best of the Complete Matrix Tapes" playlist with the best versions of all the songs that are duplicated on it? This stuff is so great but I'm not sure I need four versions of Heroin.

van dyke parks generator (anagram), Friday, 12 July 2019 07:04 (six years ago)

Not to cop out but my chief pleasure in listening to the Matrix Tapes is hearing them do whole shows - the continuity of it is the thing. Otherwise a trackwise upgrade of 1969 Live would probably be a solid start (albeit missing the End Cole Ave stuff).

an incoherent crustacean (MatthewK), Friday, 12 July 2019 07:27 (six years ago)

More Dallas '69 footage, I think this has some shots which aren't in the previous one?

van dyke parks generator (anagram), Friday, 12 July 2019 10:19 (six years ago)

Some great shots in this one.

Orpheus Knutt (Tom D.), Friday, 12 July 2019 11:09 (six years ago)

Yes indeed

Yes, the super deluxe edition of the third album has this exact thing

Mark G, Friday, 12 July 2019 12:14 (six years ago)

Perfect, thanks!

van dyke parks generator (anagram), Friday, 12 July 2019 12:26 (six years ago)

Wow that Enoch Light track slays

One Eye Open, Friday, 12 July 2019 13:11 (six years ago)

Was that in tandem with those Dallas ‘69 videos that are broken upthread?
